We observed the field of GRB 200412B (Fermi GBM team, GCN 27547; Mailyan
et al., GCN 27558; see also Burgess et al., GCN 27548; Longo et al., GCN
27557; Page et al., GCN 27561; Gupta et al., GCN 27563; Zheng et al.,
GCN 27565) with AS-32 (0.7m) telescope of Abastumani Observatory
starting on 2020-04-14 (UT) 00:16:57. We clearly detected the
afterglow of GRB 200412B (Lipunov et al., GCNs 27555, 27556; Kumar et
al., GCN 27564; Belkin et al., GCN 27566, Stecklum et al., GCN 27567,
Moskvitin GCN 27570; Xin et al., GCN 27571). Preliminary photometry of
the afterglow is following.

1525-0301929 17.85
The index of power law decay of the afterglow light curve between the
two epochs of our observations (Belkin et al., GCN 27566 at 0.41793
days) and reported in this circular (at 1.65401 days) is -1.58+/-0.07
which is corroborate with the index reported by Xin et al. (GCN 27571).
